How do you use simulation tools to predict and reduce shrinkage in polymer molding?
Shrinkage is the reduction in size or volume of a polymer part after it is molded and cooled. It can cause defects such as warping, cracking, or dimensional inaccuracies that affect the performance and aesthetics of the product. To avoid costly rework or rejection, you need to predict and reduce shrinkage in polymer molding using simulation tools. Here are some tips on how to do that.
